The way that this works is a little difficult potentially. You have to impose limits on the extension that can be notified, generally this isnt a problem for 99% of people, so ... When you have another extension, the user typically can only type numbers, this puts the limitation on creating a context that wakeup is going to use that is going to have enough capability. This also means that users might be able to circumvent dialing restrictions that they may otherwise have in place. Generally this wont be a problem, thus the 99% comment above, however there is that 1% ... One way to work around would be to get whatever context the call came in on and use that for outgoing, however that may not be acceptable to others ... Without going to a full blown profile system this type of feature creates other problems in terms of dialing restrictions. It is possible, maybe if I add that to mine I will make it optional however so that it should be suitable for 100% not just some arbitrarily random number I selected above :) -- Trixter http://www.0xdecafbad.com Bret McDanel UK +44 870 340 4605 Germany +49 801 777 555 3402 US +1 360 207 0479 or +1 516 687 5200 FreeWorldDialup: 635378 http://www.sacaug.org/ Sacramento Asterisk Users Group
